Today at the electronics swap shop, I saw 'Die Hard Arcade', which I've been looking for for ages. Would have bought it, except it was in a damn console bundle--I'm not buying a second Saturn and a stack of games I don't care about just to get a game that I kind of already own ('Dynamite Cop' on the Dreamcast is largely the same game). Not for eighty bucks, anyhow.

I don't shop for older systems, but I found Makai Kingdom (PS2) and was pretty happy.

Finding God Hand a while back was good, too.

I found the japenese cart of Mother 3 at a garage sale.

I know it's not retro but it's pretty friggen rare.

Wow, that's definately pretty rediculous. Did you pick it up?

Chaos Deviot · 02-06-2009, 11:38 AM

^^ For that matter, if you did, does it have an English language option? If it does, I'll just port it. I could probably also port the Mother 1 + 2 collection if it has an english option as well.

Negitory, me and Tarian found one like, several days later. I think I mentioned it in college to you today, however briefly it was.

I got me a ROB at a secondhand store several years ago. It doesn't work, but that's not the point.

Yeah, since the games for ROB are kinda boring anyway.

I cleaned out the NES Advantage, NES Zapper, and NES infrared controller extender devices while my local FuncoLand still existed and was emptying that stuff out.

I also got a Sega Saturn for $20 and bought a Sega Netlink (online, unfortunately) which allows it to go online in the most limited, messed up fashion possible.

1-up Salesman · 07-17-2009, 02:41 PM

The original Castlevania.

Dizzy · 07-17-2009, 03:49 PM

Michael Jackson's Moonwalker

Urban Champion
Super Smash Bros. (my original cart doesn't work)
Knuckles' Chaotix
Yo! Noid
Home Improvement
Cyber Tiger
NES Max
Home-modded Zapper
